My shop just called and told me I have a bent rod and that it means my entire powerhead is trash...$4,500 repair!! :eek:
Is replacing my entire power head the only option?
Do you know somewhere I can get a good deal on a used/new power head?
Is it worth the repair?
Thanks!!!
1994 Mariner 115 OB on a 17.5 Bayliner
I just bought a boat last month from a less than reputable dealer who told me the boat ran fine, I know it was a mistake to buy it without the compression test, but it's done now.
I have been having issues getting this thing to get to top speed...so far...
I'm having issues with my 1994 Bayliner w/ a Mariner 115.
When I accelerate from wake speeds, it accelerates fine until half way to full throttle then it seems to get bogged down. It's not getting nearly the speed that it should, maybe 15-20 miles an hour.
There is no issue with the way it...
